Thank you!
I am a Presbyterian.
Most were from Ireland particularly Ulster.
As a Kristian from Aizawl, I find this vdo rather interesting and illuminating.
What grabs me straightaway is your claim of theological diversity. I wonder if this can really be said of us when it comes to schools of thoughts on the nature of God, formal and informal forms of worship as well as in our place in the Mizo politics and society.
True, this is inclined towards American Presbyterianism but Presbyterian is Presbyterian. Period.
I am definitely NOT becoming a member of the Presbyterians, but I do want to learn about them.
Preise the Lord
But, no....we can do without the soundtrack.
without words increduble !
...Why all the “LABELS”, just read the Bible verse by verse (and not skip any verses) , all 66 books and call it non-denominational...
non-denominational is a label. Labels are not altogether bad, consider: you could sit down and give someone a lengthy statement of belief, by using a label, you can condense a generalization about a Christian branch easily, no it doesn't answer all the questions but its a start, also consider that it is others that label: Luther didn't name himself a "lutheran" others did, and labels stick, "they were first called "christians" in antioch, and before that they were called "followers of the Way". We are stuck with labels whether we like them or not, we should work not to fall into the label traps.
It has to do with how you interpret the text. The Theology. Also has to do with how the church governments are set up to administer biblical structure and accountability.
All that background music is not needed.
wheres pres George Washington today and who is he again?
I think you are asking what were President George Washington's religious views...Correct? He, like the majority of colonists were - officially - Anglicans (which, after the Revolutionary War, changed its name to Episcopal to avoid the suggestion of English control.). The doctrine and practice of colonial Anglicanism was very orthodox - especially in comparison to today's Episcopals. (By the way, until the new constitution of the nation was composed, most of the 13 colonies had a denominational affiliation. For instance, if you lived in early Virginia, you HAD to attend - and pay church taxes to - your local Anglican congregation every Sunday, even if you also attended Presbyterian worship services, which - since the Anglicans also controlled the licensing of pastors - would take place at another time during he day/week.). Back to the point of your question: Washington was a highly educated and devout believer in Jesus Christ and he practiced his faith with serious consideration, humble service and avoidance of affectations of piety. His words and actions prove it and you are welcome to pick up any number of good books about Washington's religious beliefs ("Sacred Fire" by Peter Lillback or "Washington's God" by Michael & Jana Novak) for details. Certain historians of the 20th century decided to make their own names famous by claiming that our national hero was dismissive/vague about God and that he was morally corrupt. They are full of their own lies. Deism was a popular religious position of the 18th century which broadly "acknowledged" a god of creation but presumed that such a god had no interested, intervening hand in human affairs beyond that; God = impersonal Fate. Washington was not a Deist by that definition, but he worked closely with many who were (Benjamin Franklin being the "poster boy" for colonial Deists.). Sometimes these sensibilities clashed but they did agree and worked together to give us our actual freedom of religion.
@@scribe53 You mean, "Masonic". G.W. was a Freemason ie: not a Christian.
